Executives meet at Louvre on stablecoin liquidity and chains

Paris — On June 3, 2026, an invitation-only roundtable at the Louvre Palace convened senior executives, regulators and infrastructure providers to discuss stablecoin liquidity, settlement and cross-chain interoperability.

The session took place during Proof of Talk’s StableDay programming. It was hosted by the SLX Foundation with Alwin Tan Hee Nam and co-hosted by Stablecoin Insider, the Global Crypto Forum and the Nordic Blockchain Association. Attendance required a valid Proof of Talk pass.

Organizers limited seating to 20–25 people at the table and allowed roughly 50 senior attendees in the room to encourage direct discussion. The agenda began with a seated breakfast at 8:30 a.m. and continued with a two-hour working session ending at 10:30 a.m.

Participants included senior representatives from Paxos, BlackRock, Robinhood, Visa and Tether, along with executives from Glassnode, Sumsub, Zodia Markets, Xapo Bank and Raiffeisen Bank. The group comprised stablecoin issuers, trading and custody firms, infrastructure providers, institutional investors and policy makers.

Discussion topics focused on technical and market barriers to wider stablecoin use. Participants addressed fragmented liquidity across platforms, cross-chain interoperability, settlement networks, treasury and banking integrations, compliance frameworks and institutional adoption of tokenized finance, including tokenized real-world assets and cross-border payments.

Organizers described the roundtable as a private forum for sharing implementation experience rather than public panels or presentations and emphasized practical industry collaboration to reduce fragmentation and advance interoperable systems. “The Stablecoin Roundtable brings together the executives, institutions, and builders actively shaping the future of stablecoins and tokenized finance,” organizers commented.

The session did not produce public policy recommendations. Organizers said discussions are expected to inform possible coordinated work on interoperability and settlement but did not announce specific next steps or timelines.
